Cheesy Venison on Ciabatta

Fried ground venison, onion, garlic, and celery, mixed with cream of celery soup, topped with cheddar cheese, and toasted on a buttery Ciabatta roll. This recipe was made with ground venison, but you can use any ground meat of your choice. Ground chicken, beef, or turkey are all great options.

For sides, this sandwich goes well with fries, tater tots, tater wedges, or chips. It is great as leftovers, too. Have one for lunch the next day. You'll thank me!

Cheesy Venison on Ciabatta Recipe

Ingredients:

• 1 6 count pack of Marketside Ciabatta Rolls – Italian style recipe
• 1 pound of venison, ground
• 10.5 ounces of cream of celery soup
• 1 small onion, diced
• 1/2 cup of celery, diced
• 1 teaspoon of minced garlic
• 2 tablespoons of milk
• 1/4 teaspoon of salt
• 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper
• 1 3/4 cups of shredded cheddar cheese
• 2 teaspoons of butter (optional)

Getting It Done:

1. Preheat the oven to 375°F.
2. Dice the onions and celery, and mince the garlic.
3. Put 2 teaspoons of butter in a small bowl and let it set out to room temperature (optional). We will use this later to brush the tops of the rolls.
4. Cook the celery in a frying pan on medium-high heat for about 5 minutes and add the venison burger and onions.
5. Preheat a medium-sized frying pan to medium-high heat. Fry the venison, scrambling and breaking it up as it cooks. Cook until done, which should be about 7 minutes. Drain any excess grease.
6. Add garlic, cream of celery soup, milk, salt, and black pepper, and cook for another minute.
7. Split the Ciabatta rolls and lay them on a baking tray or cookie sheet.
8. Place about 1/3 cup of the meat mixture on the bottom roll, and top with about 3 1/2 tablespoons of shredded cheddar cheese.
9. Place the tops of the rolls back on and then brush with butter (optional) using a pastry brush.
10. Bake until the cheese is melted, only a few minutes, and serve immediately.

To reheat, it's best if the sandwich is unassembled. First, heat the meat mixture in the microwave until warm. Then assemble the sandwich per the directions and heat it again in the microwave until the cheese is melted. I would skip buttering the tops. They might become soggy.

If the sandwiches are already assembled, you can still heat them in the microwave. First, cut them in half. Then heat for 30 seconds at a time, flipping them over after every 30 seconds until heated thoroughly.
